Boise Homes News August 2011
There has been a lot of activity recently with the debt ceiling troubles coming to a head, with no small help from Standard & Poor downgrading the United States credit rating. Despite these worries low mortgage rates have managed to survive both the debt crisis and the countries credit downgrade.
Surveys of wholesale and direct lenders are showing that while mortgage rates have survived this turmoil so far with the larger 30 year fixed rate only fluctuating by .125%. With good credit borrowers can still obtain these low rates; this demonstrates that – with mortgage rates still at the lowest levels of the year – NOW may be a great time for Boise home buyers who receive lender approval.
Through combining low FHA rates and current low down payment requirements, borrowers looking to purchase a home are still able to find great affordable homes. Although FHA closing costs may be higher because of the various fees and upfront mortgage insurance requirements, the benefits of an FHA mortgage far outweighs the cost.
MBS prices (mortgage backed securities) are up again are up this week. Who cares?
Mortgage rates generally change in the opposite direction of MBS prices. A spot of bright news is that private sector jobs increased and mortgage applications are also seeing an increase. On the down side, factory orders decreased, showing no real hurry in the construction industry to start cranking out new product in a still saturated market. Overall though, investors are reacting well to the news of Standard and Poor’s downgrading of the U.S. credit rating by capitalizing on the boost for the bond market while. If investors continue to seek the safety of bonds, mortgage rates should remain low.

New Home Buyer Incentives from Freddie Mac
Taking a queue from it’s industry counterpart, Freddie Mac is now offering a special summer sales promotion for home buyers who purchase their home from it’s inventory of foreclosures or Homesteps properties.
Banks typically sell foreclosure homes as they are without any incentives or warranties; by adding a little extra something for buyers Freddie Mac is hoping to encourage potential owners to view these Homepath properties less as “distressed properties” and more like a traditional home sale.
Freddie Mac is providing these special deals for offers received by July 31, that close by September 30th:
$1,200 bonus to buyers agents
3.5% in closing costs for buyers
These incentives are in addition to the Two Year Homeprotect Home Warranty and the savings of up to 30% savings on new appliances which are already being offered.
There are certain eligibility requirements such as the home must be a single-family, owner occupied, financed dwelling used solely for residential purposes. With Boise home prices still amazingly low and interest rates in prime shape these extra incentives provide an even better reason to find the home you’ve been dreaming of!
